The Russian leader made the comments during a joint press conference with Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban in Budapest. Putin also noted that after supporting a particular candidate in the US presidential elections – apparently hinting at Hillary Clinton – the Ukrainian government is now seeking to establish closer ties with the new administration under Donald Trump. “The Ukrainian opposition has been more active amid clear [government] failures in the economic area and social policy,” Putin said. He noted that the ruling elite in Kiev is now seeking to silence the opposition and “mobilize” people around the government, which is easier to achieve “against the background of a renewal of some conflict.” Visit us! http://bit.ly/1QYbTPH Like us on Facebook: http://bit.ly/1FWbWL7 Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/RussiaInsider
